Boren Makes it Official

Justin Boren officially made the move from Michigan to Ohio State, completing a historic transfer that is sure to ratchet up an already heated rivalry. Boren started for Michigan at guard and center, and will have to sit out the 2008 season. He will not be on schoalrship but could start for the Buckeyes in 2009.

Apparently a side controversy has sprung up involving former coach Lloyd Carr. A Dispatch report claimed that he worked behind the scenes to make sure Boren would get his release from the university. Carr flatly denies that.

Either way, Boren is not exactly receiving great press for the move. Unless being called "turncoat" qualifies as a positive.
